This article focuses on the book "Road to War. America: 1914-1917," by Walter Millis. Of all the purely reportorial books which have been written about the entrance of the United States into the World War I, this is easily the best. It succeeds precisely where Mark Sullivan's "Over Here" failed. It betrays an almost exhaustive amount of research into all the pertinent governmental, journalistic, and biographical documents; it is very clearly written; and it is devoid of patrioteering. Good as Millis's previous book, "The Martial Spirit," was, "Road to War" is even better.
